"The span was closed for nearly six days after 5,000 pounds of metal came crashing down into rush-hour traffic Tuesday evening when the two rods and crossbar failed. The parts had been installed over the Labor Day weekend to repair a crack.

One person sustained minor injuries and three cars were damaged when the metal fell." (visit link)
